Subject: bug#51753: ERC switches to channel buffer on reconnect
Date: Wed, 10 Nov 2021 07:09:24 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CADwFkmkUm012pjgmoaUgnQ2AT+f0SKVvo0UA5XjUYrU=xVTKeQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Severity: important
When ERC reconnects, it switches buffer to the channel buffers. This is
*very* dangerous.
Consider the situation when the user is about to paste a password and
hit enter with a quick "C-y RET", when all of a sudden the ERC buffer
pops up a fraction of a second before you hit those keys. Now your
password is on IRC.
At the very least, this behavior should be disabled by default, and
preferably also come with a big warning sign for anyone that intends to
enable it.
